Question

13 multiple choice 2 points transcription occurs in the ____ and translation occurs in the __. ribosome; cytoplasm nucleus; lysosome nucleus; ribosome cytoplasm; nucleus 14 multiple choice 2 points matched pairs of chromosomes which are the same length and contain the same genes on the same locus are called ____. genomes homologous chromosomes sister chromatids genes 15 matching 2 points match the type of rna with the correct description of its function. trna rrna mrna

Explanation:

1. Transcription is the process of making RNA from DNA and occurs in the nucleus. Translation is the process of making proteins from RNA and occurs in ribosomes which are in the cytoplasm.
2. Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes that have the same length and the same genes at the same locus.
3. tRNA (transfer - RNA) carries amino acids to the ribosome during translation. rRNA (ribosomal - RNA) is a component of ribosomes. mRNA (messenger - RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.

Answer:

1. C. nucleus; ribosome
2. B. homologous chromosomes

15.
tRNA: Carries amino - acids to ribosome
rRNA: Component of ribosomes
mRNA: Carries genetic information from DNA to ribosome
